Memorial Park
29401-, 29535 W Eleven Mile Rd,
Farmington Hills, MI 48366
Memorial Park provides residents of Farmington Hills with a place to honor and recognize friends and family members who have passed away.
Located at the corner of Eleven Mile and Middlebelt Roads, Memorial Park’s primary purpose is to provide residents with a place for peaceful reflection. Throughout the past several years, Memorial Park has been completely refurbished with new landscaping, sidewalks, and a granite memorial, all of which add to the natural beauty of the setting.
Along the Memorial Park pathway, specially paved areas feature bricks available for purchase as a memorial. With a donation of $100, individuals or groups may purchase a brick to be inscribed with the name or commemorative message of their choice. (Please note that the individual being memorialized or the person purchasing the brick must be a current or former Farmington Hills resident.)
In addition to brick pavers, other items available for purchase at Memorial Park include trees, benches, and birdhouses to be placed throughout the park.
